Funkwhale Federation
Extend ActivityPub capabilities for Funkwhale
Funkwhale is an open-source platform for music and podcast streaming, exploration and publishing that empowers users to publish, share, and enjoy audio content across the Fediverse and beyond. By using open standards like ActivityPub for federation between websites that host Funkwhale, RSS for integrating with other platforms, and Subsonic for client compatibility, Funkwhale bridges communities and tools seamlessly. Its mission is to help listeners and audio content creators break free from corporate monopolies by opening up the music industry through a decentralized, community-driven approach. Funkwhale wants to give artists and audiences more control, freedom, and ownership over how music is distributed and experienced by freeing it from commercial exploitation.
